burning smell?

I drive a 1993 400E
[hr]
I noticed that after I drive at speeds in between 90 and 130mph for short periods of time, I can smell a strong burning smell and I don't know what it is comming from. What do you guys think my problem is?

RE: burning smell?

my guess is there a leak of oil (trans/motor) somewhere along the exhaust pipe. An easy way to check is lift the car up (or crwal under) and look for dark burn stains on your exhaust pipe (front to rear)...
